The 2023 Schloss Johannisberg Riesling Orangelack Kabinett is at the top of the estate’s Kabinett wines. It impresses with excellent flow and a dynamic contrast of vibrant acidity, delicate fruit with its subtle sweetness, and linear coolness. The 2023 vintage benefited from exceptionally warm temperatures, leading to particularly good grape development. The nose is dominated by intense stone fruit aromas such as yellow plum and white peach, accompanied by floral and herbal notes such as orange blossom, lavender, and sage. On the palate, the wine is juicy and complex, with light stone fruit and slight exotic nuances of passion fruit. After hand-picking, the must was gently pressed and fully fermented in stainless steel, then aged on fine lees in a 1,200-litre barrel made from the estate’s own oak.
